Personal Sunset - iPhone photo gallery

I´m fortunate to be able to watch great sunsets right from my home´s balcony, everyday. What you see above is a collection of photos i made with the iPhone, focused in those wonderfull scenes. The gallery, that i´m regularly updating, is available here.

Note: years ago, i had a similar project, but using a dedicated camera.

Statusbar Notifications for @notifiedapp

The team from @notifiedapp has just released the second notification extension for Notified. The first, if you missed it, was called Notification Bar, and looks very close to GriP's normal notifications, but fixed at the bottom (see above, first GriP´s normal notifications, then Notified´s notification bar).

Not bad, but still an intrusive solution. I was hoping for something akin Double Height Statusbar for GriP

Has you can see, however, it's not double height, but normal statusbar, very close to what is done in rss Reeder app.


I'd prefer the double height bar, but this is still sweet. Proper notifications for iPhone, Yay!

What is still missing from Notified, IMO:

1. Double Height Statusbar extension (still think is the best solution, and the Notified team has got the code of GriP´s from @gauravk92 )
2. All notification extensions should work on landscape
3. Choosing extensions from inside Notified settings, and being able to choose what extension is used for each application
4. Being able to block notifications (via statusbar or bar) in lockscreen
5. Being able to make notifications appear for just a few seconds
6. Stacking of notifications
7. Make notification pane appear gradually like with Qtwitter, or Android´s (really following your finger)
8. Group notifications by application, if you want (now is by time)
9. Email notifications (coming on 1.4)
10. Notifications for appstore updates, iPod music playing, calls, etc
11. Release extension SDK for external developers
12. The "!" statusbar icon should be folowed by number of unread notifications
13. Whenever iOS flags a notifications has "read", they should be automaticaly removed from Notified´s log

Mac OSx 10.6.4 running on a Toshiba NB200

Has promised here is my Toshiba NB200 netbook running the latest Snow Leopard build (10.6.4). It was made using an iPhone 3GS, and edited on the phone with hacked version of iMovie. Song is "Baptism"from the Crystal Castles.

Regarding the hackintosh itself, everything works except sleep mode, and the webcam has problems with Skype (not with iChat - works perfectly). Also, i had to replace wifi card for it to work. The tutorial i used is available here.

Note: i made a mistake writing the twitter client name...it´s "YoruFukurou". I didn´t change it, be cause it does take ALOT of time to generate the final video on iMovie on the 3GS, and i badly needed to sleep :)
